Chapter 1104 World Blessing
BooooooooooooooM!
With a deafening boom, the Primordial Shadow Energy that Evan had infused into the Halberd of Destruction detonated, creating a catastrophic explosion.
A golden, mushroom-shaped cloud nearly ten thousand meters high rose into the sky, and a five-meter-thick, ring-shaped white-coloured shockwave erupted from it, spreading in all directions like a harbinger of the apocalypse. The speed of the shockwave exceeded the speed of sound by hundreds of times, covering thousands of kilometres in just a few seconds, obliterating everything in its path.
The dry ground crumbled like fragile glass, shattering into countless pieces. Billions of tons of rock and soil were swept along with the shockwave, forming a natural tsunami of debris that looked as if the end of the world was coming.
Due to his earlier clash with Xael'Tor, Evan had already been pushed nearly twenty kilometres away from the site where the Halberd of Destruction unleashed its destructive energy. However, even at that distance, Evan couldn't entirely escape the shockwave's impact and was blasted nearly three hundred kilometres away before he finally regained his balance.
Fortunately, the shockwave's force was completely absorbed by his armour, leaving him uninjured. The devastating effects of the explosion lasted for nearly three minutes before everything finally calmed down.
After everything calmed down, Evan surveyed the area around him and noticed that the landscape had been completely transformed. The destructive energy released by the halberd had thrown the World Essence of the surroundings into total chaos, causing spatial rifts to open and close randomly due to the weakened space barrier. The dry ground was shattered, and hundreds of massive craters, each thousands of meters in diameter, dotted the area.
"As expected from my daughter..." Evan sighed as he looked at the widespread destruction and stretched out his hand. As he stretched out his hand, a golden light flashed in his arm and the Halberd of Destruction returned to him.
Once the halberd was back in his grasp, Evan took a step forward and instantly appeared above the place where Xael'Tor had been when the explosion occurred.
He scanned the surroundings with his spiritual senses and when he didn't detect any traces of Xael'Tor, he nodded his head in satisfaction.
"A perfect cleanup..." He muttered in a low voice and was preparing to leave when suddenly, he sensed something and his eyes sharpened.
He focused on the deep pit where the Halberd of Destruction had detonated and saw space in that area warp and twist.
Slowly, it seemed as if time had been rewound in that area and Xael'Tor reappeared there, completely unharmed.
Evan was momentarily stunned upon seeing Xael'Tor emerge unscathed, but his expression soon turned serious as he noticed that although the Eldritch Creature looked unharmed, his aura had dropped by nearly half.
"I didn't expect you to survive even after being caught off guard and taking the full brunt of the destructive energy head-on..." Evan said to the six-armed creature, whose two heads were glaring at him coldly.
"Die?" Xael'Tor sneered upon hearing Evan's words. "Do you think you can kill me? I have the blessing of the world, granted to me by His Majesty. Even if you kill me hundreds of times, I will always come back to life. In this world, we, the followers of Emperor Velgoth are immortal."
Evan narrowed his eyes when he heard Xael'Tor mention the words "World Blessing" and "immortality" and couldn't help but look at him deeply.
Of course, he didn't fully believe Xael'Tor's claim of being immortal. Although he was surprised that the Eldritch Creature in front of him was still alive, from his weakened aura, it was clear that after taking the attack of the Halberd of Destruction head-on, Xael'Tor didn't emerge completely unscathed.
Even though he claimed he was immortal due to the World Blessing given to him by Emperor Velgoth, Evan was certain there must be a limit to how many times this blessing could save Xael'Tor's life, and he also believed there must be a price Xael'Tor had to pay in order to come back to life.
"Although I am very interested in this so-called World Blessing that you spoke of, I am sure you wouldn't tell me anything about it…" Evan said with a sigh and looked at Xael'Tor with an indifferent expression. "You just said you are immortal and wouldn't die as long as you are in this world, right?"
As Evan spoke, Xael'Tor suddenly felt an extreme sense of danger and all of his instincts screamed at him to run away from there.
Xael'Tor was a Peak Rank Three Core Evolver, so he naturally trusted his instincts. The moment he sensed something was wrong, he immediately turned around to run.
"Shadow World!"
Unfortunately for him, before he could escape, he heard an indifferent voice and a black dome enveloped an area of ten kilometers, trapping him inside.
With Evan's current power, Shadow World could easily cover an area of around five hundred kilometres, but the larger the area, the more Primordial Shadow Energy it consumed. Therefore, he kept it relatively small to save energy.
The moment Shadow World erupted and trapped Xael'Tor, the Eldritch Creature's expression changed to one of disbelief.
"How can this be? How can you cut off my connection with the world?"
The Eldritch Creature screamed in horror, but no one answered him and before he could grasp his situation, the black suddenly dome lit up with a golden light and a terrifying aura of destruction spread in all directions.
The Eldritch Creature raised his head and looked towards the ceiling of the dome. As his gaze shifted upward, his blood ran cold and he felt the breath of true death engulf his body.
Above him, a nearly hundred meter long jet black halberd, glowing with a terrifying energy of destruction was plummeting toward him.
Rumble!
The pressure from the descending halberd was so immense that the entire shadow world began to quake and the ground collapsed even before it struck.
"How is this possible?" The Eldritch Creature screamed loudly and sensing the impending doom, he immediately summoned all his strength.
His Eldritch Energy Zone erupted outward with full power and in the middle of the Zone, an illusionary shadow of a world where ghastly figures were screaming appeared.
At that instant, the eyes located in the centre of each of Eldritch Creature's foreheads opened, and two powerful energy beams shot forth, heading straight towards the falling halberd.
In an instant, the beams fired by the Eldritch Creature's two heads collided with the Halberd of Destruction. But the beams didn't last even a second before they collapsed under the sheer weight and destructive power of the halberd.
After obliterating the two beams of light, the Halberd of Destruction crashed against the Eldritch Energy Zone that Xael'Tor had released.
When the halberd collided with the Eldritch Energy Zone, which was being reinforced by the illusionary World, its downward momentum paused for a moment.
The ghastly figures that were howling inside the illusionary world, located in the middle of the Eldritch Energy Zone turned their gaze toward the Halberd of Destruction and released a strange kind of energy that increased the power of Xael'Tor's Zone.
Seeing his Zone had halted the falling halberd, the Eldritch Creature sighed in relief, but in the next moment...
"Useless," He heard Evan's cold voice and saw him appearing just above the hundred-meter-long halberd.
Evan touched the handle of the halberd and infused it with more Primordial Shadow Energy.
The moment he poured more Primordial Shadow Energy into the halberd...
Brzzzzzz!!!
The halberd trembled violently and...
Bang!
With a loud booming sound, the Eldritch Energy Zone shattered, and the Halberd of Destruction struck the illusionary world located in the middle of it.
The illusionary world withstood the halberd's power for only a second before shattering, and then the giant weapon descended upon the Eldritch Creature.
"No!" Xael'Tor screamed in horror as all his defenses crumbled and before he could do anything else...
BoooooooooooooooooooM!
With a deafening explosion, the Halberd of Destruction fell directly on Xael'Tor's head, wiping out his existence in an instant.
Simultaneously, the force of the impact blew the shadow world to pieces, and the shockwave generated by the attack turned the already devastated area into complete ruin.
"Unkillable and immortal?" Evan looked down from the sky at the place where Xael'Tor had stood moments ago and shook his head. "What a letdown."
